A quiz I will be asking any new guy to complete

1. You are in a restaurant with your girlfriend. The food is disappointing. Do you:

a. Go into a sulk and stop talking because the food isn't as good as you think it should be?
b. Make the best of it because you are just happy to be with your girlfriend and make a note not to visit that restaurant again?

2. You are out for the evening with your girlfriend but are feeling a little tired. Do you:

a. Go into a sulk because you are tired and your girlfriend hasn't telepathically realised that you are?
b. tell your girlfriend that you are a little tired and ask if you skip dessert so that you can go home early?

3. You are on your way to a place 3 hours away that you wanted to go to and your gf has offered to drive because your car needs some work doing to it. When your gf asks for directions whilst you are speaking at her, do you:

a. Start screaming at her whilst she is driving at 70mph on the motorway because you've been interrupted, refuse to give any directions, and leave her to balance the map on the steering wheel whilst you nearly burst her ear drum by shouting at her for not asking for directions "in the correct manner"?
b. Apologise for leaving it so late to help with directions, and make sure she knows which lane to get in on the motorway asap.

4. You've travelled halfway across the world to see your gf who has been away for 6 weeks. It's the second day of the holiday, and is Valentine's Day, and you're having a lovely coastal walk. Your gf is telling you about a friend of her's who has been quite rude. Do you:

a. Start shouting that she is clearly talking about you and is having a go at you whilst pretending to talk about her friend, go into a sulk for the rest of the week, and spoil the Valentine's Day dinner that she had organised for you that evening?
b. Listen, agree that the friend has been rude, enjoy the rest of the coastal walk and the Valentine's Day and the rest of the holiday.

5. It's your girlfriend's birthday. You had a row the night before. Do you:

a. Don't even bother to send a text message wishing her a happy birthday, and, when you speak next, tell her that she's not your gf anyway, so she doesn't merit a present or card?
b. Turn up and try and patch things up with her. It is her birthday after all!

6. It's a Saturday and your gf has to go into work which is near where you are living with your parents. Your mum works in the same place and has had to go into work that day too. Your gf asks if you will meet her for lunch that day. Do you:

a. Say no, because it is too far for you to go, but turn up and take your mum out for lunch anyway, and then claim later that it's because "your mum needs a boost".
b. Meet your gf for lunch. You don't see her all that often and you live with your parents after all.

7. It's a gorgeous Sunday morning. The sun is shining. You had a lovely, romantic evening with your gf the night before. The whole day is stretching ahead of you both. Do you:

a. Get up, pace the house, and then, following a tantrum, go into work all day because you "just have to get on", and, anyway, your mum does that every weekend so it's normal.
b. Stay in bed and cuddle your gf before getting up for a leisurely Sunday. That's what Sundays are for, after all!

8. Your gf is sobbing in front of you following an insensitive comment that you made. Do you:

a. Sneer at her and tell her that she's being dramatic and that you won't let her win the little game that she's playing?
b. Feel terrible, cuddle her and reassure her that you didn't mean the insensitive comment that you made, and make a mental note to not be insensitive again.

9. Your gf's brother has just had a bad accident. She's come back home after a long drive to see him in the hospital. Do you:


a. Open the door to her, tell her that she's lucky to have you there because she's so late back, then sit in front of the tv and sulk for the rest of the night whilst she sits in the bath crying?
b. Open the door to her, take her bags, give her a big hug, let her cry on your shoulder, and give her lots of tlc - she needs it!

10. Your gf is having a few problems in work and tells you about them over dinner that evening. Do you:

a. Listen for 2 minutes, then call her a tw@t because she's just "venting" and you think venting is pointless?
b. Listen to her, suggest some things she can do, and ask her again in a few days' time how things are going?


Your answers: mostly As. Well, you do sound like a lovely guy but I'm afraid that I'd rather wait til penguins can go sliding around on the ice in hell before I have a relationship with you. Have a nice life!

Mostly Bs - yay! It's a normal guy!
